NFL 2009 WK 3: Steelers vs. Bengals
Steelers and Bengals put up a primetime worthy finish on Sunday at Paul Brown Stadium.
The Bengals came into the game as a 1-1 team just coming off a upset against the Packers, looking to knock off the defending Super Bowl champs. Coming into this game, quarterback Ben Roethlisberger of …
Vernand Morency
At one point, I thought Packers running back Vernand Morency could turn into a starter and a steal for the team. Now, I think he’ll be lucky if he’s still around next season.
Morency possesses decent speed and showed some flashes of greatness as a back up to Ahman Green …
Lebron James
“The king” as often called, Lebron James is hyped to be the next saviour of the NBA. Gifted with the physical and talents to dominate the league for the next decade or so. His speed is above average for his size, Passing is extraordinary which brings a lot of …
Nick Markakis
The Baltimore Orioles are in a rebuilding mode, as they have been for many more years than I would like to admit. We have a few prospects and young players that have the potential for being outstanding if these players are given the chance to prove themselves and …
Bruce Bowen
I can’t say too much about Bruce Bowen without becoming completely infuriated. He is a six foot seven small forward out of Cal State Fullerton who currently plays with the San Antonio Spurs. He has played eleven extremely dirty and rule breaking years in the National Basketball Association. And …
Damon Jones
Damon Jones of the cleveland cavaliers was highly disappointing playing in his first season for the cavs after being signed to a multi year deal following a great season with the Miami heat. He was pivotal with the Heat’s run during the play-offs and was really an integral part …
O’neill Reactor Convertible 3/2 mm Surf Wetsuit
I bought the O’neill Reactor convertible wetsuit in a sale 2 years ago as my previous O’neill wetsuit was now around 4 years old and starting to fall apart.
This wetsuit usually costs around £80 but only cost me £48 compared to my previous O’neill wetsuit which I paid around …
Sachin Tendulkar
When I was young, I started to watch cricket matches. Those were the early years of Sachin Tendulkar. I instantly became his fan. Strangely, after more than fifteen years, I am still watching him play and to be honest I see cricket matches only due to the presence …
Green Bay Packers
Going into their game against the Detroit Lions, I had doubts about whether or not the Green Bay Packers deserved to be the #2 seed in the NFC playoffs. But, after they destroyed the Lions, despite not starting a half dozen of their starters and pulling the rest before …
Eddie Jones
Memphis Grizzlies star Eddie Jones who once was a member of the elite defensive players in the league has slowly in time lost a step or two. But, keep in mind that he still is to this date a vital factor in the Grizzlies plan of finally winning a …
Najeh Davenport
The fact the Pittsburgh Steelers will have to rely on Najeh Davenport as their featured back following the injury to Willie Parker should be a concern to Steelers fans.
While a decent number 2 back, Davenport is not a player you’re going to want to pin your playoff hopes on. …
Steve Nash
Steve Nash of the Phoenix Suns to me is the Ultimate point guard in the NBA. He is absolutely fearless and takes great risks. He has the eye like that of an eagle that can thread passes to open teammates. He uses several types of passing the ball to …
Steve Novak
After having a successful collegiate career, Steve Novak of the Houston Rockets has yet to translate that into a professional career success so far. He has been in the Houston Rockets bench for the season and has seen very little playing time at all.
I think some other team could …
Re-examining the Minnesota Vikings
Just before preseason, I took a look at the Minnesota Vikings and thought they were an overrated team; especially since they didn’t have an answer at the quarterback position. Then they signed Brett Favre and are now off to a 2-0 start.
You know what, they are better than I …
Tippmann Alpha Black Paintball Gun
The Tippmann Alpha Black Paintball Marker is one of the more common guns I’ve come across playing paintball. I own one myself, and have been extremely pleased with its performance. It’s rugged. It won’t break. I’ve seen the gun bashed on rocks, trees, shrubs, …
Absa Premiership South African Premier Soccer League
Since the formation of the Premier Soccer League in 1996, as a means for there to be a single professional body that operates elite football in South Africa, I have witnessed some very interesting developments. Firstly, a lot more professionalism has been introduced and I have noticed a generally …
Flashpoint 60 Wheelset
I will never lay claim to being a super star cyclist, but I have managed to get some pretty good results in some time trials and I consider myself to be gaining a good bit of knowledge and experience about equipment as I work to do the best I …
Anthony Smith
Anthony played every defensive line position as a collegian. He began his college career at Alabama, lettering three seasons before transferring to Arizona. Anthony compiled 71 total tackles, as well as 5 quarterback sacks and 6 passes deflected at Arizona in 1989. He saw action in Aloha, Sun, and …
Jason Richardson
Jason Richardson of the Charlotte Bobcats is one of the leagues most explosive players. He was acquired on a draft day trade that sent number five overall pick Brendan Wright and cash considerations to Golden State Warriors. Richardson is the veteran presence the Bobcats needed to school their young …
Heddon Supersonic Lure
The Heddon Supersonic lures, a great example of a item ahead of its time, and ultimately destined to fail. First introduced in the 1970’s, the Supersonics are a freshwater lure made in a large assortment of color schemes. Everything from basic black to shocking pink and everything in between. A …
Bobby Petrino
A lot of people are talking about former Atlanta Falcon’s coach Bobby Petrino and how he left the team after just 13 games. Many are taking the time to call him a quitter and other names. I won’t. I will just reiterate what I said when he took the …
Chris Webber
Philadelphia 76ers forward Chris webber who has been hampered with injuries this late in his career has been trying the road to recovery for a number of years now. He tore his ACL on the 2004 season and since then has struggled with his game. Famous before entering the …
Waqar Yunus .
Waqar Yunus was oe of the greatest fast bowler of the world. He was originator of reverse swing and he invented this technique of swinging the old ball. This technique was new and no body understood his bowling and hence, he became very successful. He used to mix …
Yi Jianlin
Right now as a rookie for the Milwaukee Bucks, Yi Jianlin has so far looked so pedestrian to me. He certainly got game but it will need at least a good 2-3 seasons before the Bucks will fully reap the benefits of drafting him with a top 5 pick …
NFL.com
NFL.com is the official website of the National Football League. This website is an excellent source on the league.
What I like is that the website is full of up to date news and information. The top stories of the day are fully explained by expert analysts and writers …
Ronnie Price
Ronnie Price of the Utah Jazz who is the team’s third string point guard was originally drafted by the Sacramento Kings. Now with the Jazz, Price will be a player who will come off the bench only on situations where the game has already been decided.
He is still young …
Luol Deng
I was watching an NBA basketball game last year and all of the sudden I heard an earth shaking scream. It quickly caught my attention and i looked up to see this beast of a man hanging on the rim after dunking over top of someone. Luol Deng, the …
Cliffhanger Climbing
This indoor climbing location is great. The routes change often, and there are always challenging things to try. There is a large bouldering cave as well as a practice wall.
For the beginner, there are training courses you can take. I took one, and it was an easy way to …
2006 Atlanta Falcons
The Atlanta Falcons are a hard team to judge. On paper, they could very well in be in the Super Bowl this year, considering they have a solid defense and one of the best running games in the league. However, it really comes down to the quarterback position.
Michael Vick …
Wrestler: Charlie Haas
Charlie Haas is one of the best technical wrestlers to hit the big leagues in many years. I watched his first ever match on his debut in the WWE along with his then tag team partner Shelton Benjamin, who had both just debuted as ‘Team Angle’ prot’g’s of Wrestling …
Tampa Bay Rays
The Tampa Bay Rays are the best story in sports (now that the Cubs are out of the race). Since their creation, this baseball team has consistently found itself at the bottom of the baseball standings, always having to compete with the big markets and big money of …
Kansas City Chiefs Preseason
The AFC West division isn’t the strongest division in the league and it’s reasonable to think just about every team in it has a shot at winning it. However, I think the Kansas City Chiefs are the likely exception to that.
I remember, way back when, the Chiefs were a …
Kevin Garnett(Minnesota Timberwolves)
Kevin Garnett’s highly considered as the best player in the NBA today. Certainly in Fantasy leagues his often drafted ahead of James and Wade. What in my opinion sets him apart from these players is his enthusiasm and passion when playing this game. You can see the burning desire …
Anthony Johnson
Anthony Johnson of the Atlanta Hawks is one of the most reliable point guards out there. He is primarily a back-up point guard that comes off the bench and produce heavily. He has played for some really good teams backing up really good point guards as well. He was …
Yurendell de Caster
This utility man for the Triple-A affifliate of the Pittsburgh Pirates, has all it takes to be a MLB player next year. He has been amazing this year, swinging the bat, as well as fielding the balls that come of opponents bats. If de Caster continues to play this …
Devin Hester
Ok, when people talk about Chicago Bears’ player Devin Hester, I will be the first to admit he’s pretty fast. After all, Madden Football gave him the first ever 100 speed rating.
But, I also think he’s very overrated.
The guy is dangerous as a kick returner. But, the fact he …
Philip Rivers
The Chargers were involved with some drama on draft day a few years back. Wanting to select Eli Manning with their overall top pick in the draft, they received word that Manning would not play for the CHargers if selected. So like any good team would do, they ignored …
Bill Belichick
Ever since 2001 I’ve had an intense hatred for the New England Patriots. I’m an Oakland Raiders fan, born and raised, so I’m still terribly upset over Tom Brady’s fumble in the 2001 playoffs that cost the Raiders the game. Out of all the Patriots, none make me more …
NFL 2009 WK 2: Patriots vs. Jets
Another chapter in the storied Jets-Patriots rivalry was written last Sunday as the Jets, led by the New York’s USC rookie signal calley Mark Sanchez and defensive mastermind Rex Ryan at the head coaching position.
New England started the game off by raising havoc in the Jets backfield as …
Wrestler: Afa Jnr.
Afa Anoia, anyone who is a fan of wrestling has heard of this famous name as one of the most recognizable in our sport. Afa Anoia Jnr is of course the Son of Wild Samoan Afa.
This young man has been a professional for many years having only competed in …
Shareef Abdur Rahim
Shareef Abdur Rahim of the Sacramento Kings was one of my all time favorites before. He was a very talented very versatile big man coming out of college for the Vancouver Grizzlies. He was selected as the third overall pick in a draft that was one for the ages. …
Keyoon Dooling
Orlando Magic Guard Keyoon Dooling whome they acquired last year at the Free Agency from the Miami Heat suffered through early season injury that affected his performance last year. The magic were hoping to get a player that would come off the bench and spark the game. Dooling is …
Chiefland Golf Course and Country Club
We had a lot of fun at this golf course that is open to the public. We started by asking for a tee time and the pro shop reported that most members showed up after nine o’clock so to just come.
We did so on a Monday and found …
Yao Ming
Yao Ming who currently is the tallest player in the NBA has the chance to be the leagues most dominant player this generation. At seven feet and six inches. Ming has the moves inside and the soft touch to be able to knock down open shots. Ming also has …
Wrestler - Ric Flair
In professional wrestling, the words great and greatest get thrown around a lot. Some proformers achieve greatness in their careers, but few ever get considered to be the greatest of all time. Ric Flair, who began his career in the 70’s, and only retired in 2008, is definitely one …
Dwight Howard
The Orlando Magic’s franchise got the wishes when they won the ‘02 NBA draft. They selected Dwight David Howard out of South Christian academy in Atlanta. Howard in my humble opinion will eventually blossom into those rare breed of NBA players that are labeled as ” Franchise Changing” players. …
Denver Nuggets
The Denver Nuggets of the NBA in my own estimation is probably the most talented team out there. I know some of you might argue and make a case for the Boston Celtics but i have to stick with the Nuggets in this category.
What they have is a team …
Wrestler: Brian Kendrick
Brian Kendrick is a great up and coming performer. He is currently wrestling as a cruiserweight, but from the matches I have seen him take part of in the past, his true talent lies in his technical ability. He was trained by Shawn Michaels, and it is obvious to …
Antoine walker
Former Boston Celtic and all-star Antoine Walker has taken in a supporting role with the Miami Heat just for the chance in winning it all. This decline in his role is testament to what he has undermied as an important factor in his career and his life. Instead of …
